i wonder what explains gianni’s’ popularity compared to some of the guys he’s ahead, partic embiid and I guess to an extent jokic, his closest historical peers — maybe it just takes a while for someone’s stature to rise among the normies and those guys will climb as time goes on. I guess he’s in some commercials these days

SGA is sort of a kawhi level private weirdo, tho he’s so new to the scene he’s def gonna rise in the next couple years. also hasn’t really played a lot on TV in the playoffs which is probably the single nuggets predictor on this list

besides steph giannis prob the star the league has pushed the most over the last x number of years, personality and gameswise hes got star qualities

bron shd be in the group too cant forget bron

giannis has the no gross bloody scratches on his arms thing going for him too

I’m noticing some body shaming happening in this list tbh

im merely praising giannis smooth scratch free arms, its body positivity if anything

wemby already number 4, thats dope. we've never had a big jersey seller guy.

i saw it so now you have to see it

I like this!

way better, good even, i like that they have a picture of a ship no brainer really, wonder if thats the final design of the uniforms seem like they could use some honing

factoid

Here is the global logo -- which by league rule contains the full name of the team:

good shades of blue and red. good font.

the wordmarks have some character, particularly the LA, not totally sanded down like most contemporary stuff

the logo couldve just been a cool picture of a ship in profile tho making it a basketball ship with a bunch of shit all over it is kind of dumb

yeah too busy

for me this was it, v similar but these colors are so much nicer

overall very good and a MASSIVE improvement

they should def put the LA on the shorts in place of the Ship graphic

love Los Angeles version

why is he wearing kobes instead of his own shoe

ah ok rip pgs

Everyone wanted to know what’s going on with the Nike PG Signature Line. I spoke with Paul George tonight and he told me he signed a 6 sneaker deal with Nike which ended with the Nike PG 6. He told me not to worry because Nike is going to retro the Nike PG 1 & Nike PG 2.5 pic.twitter.com/XiPuEmVSPc

Surprised they didn’t come to a new agreement those were pretty successful shoes iirc

wonder if nike is getting to a point where only a certain class of A list superstar really moves the needle in the shoe game and even someone at the level of PG is mostly fungible

the PG6s were/are very popular

yeah i guess my point is how much of it is the shoe vs how much of it is the name? has sneakerhead culture has led to a class of more discerning buyers who are less apt to just buy a shoe simply bcuz of the endorser attached? i feel like the whole thing w/ the sabrina ionescu shoe was that people were like, this is a really high quality basketball shoe. i'm just speculating here as i'm not someone who shopsf for basketball shoes

my extremely non-science view on the PG6s is based solely on what i see kids wearing at the games my son plays in, they're pretty popular. He says they're comfortable and they look cool. Definitely a shoe people seek out.

yeah PGs are also one of the cheaper sig models. kids really love PG.

i think its pretty interesting how many nba players play in kobes.

All the sig shoes I’ve tried are too heavy. I get tired of lifting my feet up.

def seems like signature shoes dont have the cache they once did, which might be part of the larger trend of new basketball shoes just not being nearly as popular as they once were, people dont really wear them for casual purposes like they used to

so if your audience has tilted towards ballers and away from randoms not only is smaller and therefor not worth the investment of signing a guy and do tons of ads but those ballers are maybe less swayed by the marketing because they have the added concern the shoe being personally good for them to play in

both teams wearing dark unis someone needs to get fired this cant be allowed

the ada compliance people need to step in and sue the league ffs

go back to the old system stop making so many uniforms how much money do they even make off this dumb shit it cant be that much in the big scheme of things

its basically all just to take advantage of the tiny sliver of the market who are compulsive jersey buyers right

last night during the heat broadcast the promo of the game was an additional 50% off any sale item at the team store online & for the promo they showed a browser scrolling down the sale page on miamiheat.com and the entire page was basically just like 24 different variations of kyle lowry jerseys lol

get em while they last
